Another Beautiful Day in London! Happy Game Day!!! Go Horns \m/

Hi Everyone!
Sorry it has been a while since my last post, it has been a long week!

First I want to start by saying HOOK 'EM HORNS and I am so excited to watch the game tonight finally, have been missing my Horns and good ole American football! This Soccer isn't cutting it.... I have my slingbox set up so I am ready to go!

It is a beautiful day in London today and I have an exciting day planned. This afternoon I am going to the place to be on a nice Saturday afternoon in London. To the little Champagne Bar on the 5th floor of Harvey Nickol's department store for an afternoon cocktail!! From what Jay and Jennifer said it is the place to be and be seen so that is were I will be! And bonus I went to H&M and Zara's yesterday so I have a new sweater and a fabulous new coat to wear because it is a sunny 50 degree day! Then I think I am going to walk through Hyde Park.

So what did I do this week. I had 2 interviews at the Intercontinental Park Lane Hotel in Hyde Park corner so keep your fingers crossed. I also have an interview at a fine new hotel property that hasn't even opened yet outside of London on Monday. It is Coworth Park. It will take your breath away. I walked around Covent Garden for hours on Tuesday and is by far my favorite place so far. I took a tour of the city on the hop on hop off bus on Thursday (this first rainy day so far) but it was still fun. My camera battery died half way through so I will have to get more pictures at a later date.

Also I am going to Ireland on Tuesday till Monday to travel around and see if there are any jobs there. I can't wait for that so I will be sure to post from Ireland!

Well that is all I have for now. I am off to be a fashionable Londoner before tonight when I am back to a Texas Longhorn for the night!!!

Lots of love from the other side of the pond!

Me and Jet Lag aren't friends!!!

Hello all,
Third day in London and I have decided I don't like jet lag. I was hoping I would be able to skip right over that part but... ummmm no. I have been up wide awake in the middle of the night the last 2 morning... No fun...

But yesterday was eventful! All I need to say is 2 words... Harrod's and H&M!!! And those 2 words equal HEAVEN for miss Megan!!! I walked around a lot yesterday in the neighborhood and that is how I found H&M!! Went to lunch at Harrod's and had a fabulous lunch with jay. Wine and a amazing piece of Halibut... Inside Harrod's are like 20 different lunch counters from... chicken to sushi to dim sum to seafood (i swear they had prawns that were like a foot long!) to caviar and it doesn't stop there! It was so neat I just walked around speechless with big wide eyes!

And good news there is a whole foods here so hopefully I can get some foods from home there!!!

Also I found a potential pub that I may be able to see a few games at. Well at least games that are morning or afternoon and on ESPN. I feel sad I didn't get to watch any of the game yesterday but I see we pulled it off! Hook'em Horns!!!!

I did nothing today but hang out in bed and try to get on London time!

I am planning on going and seeing the sites this week so I am very much looking forward to that! I will take lots of pictures I promise!!!

Well the weather is beautiful here Friday and Saturday were sunny and in the 60's and today was overcast but nice and cool!!! Haven't seen any rain yet!

Well I love everyone and talk to you soon!

Just Arrived in London

Hello all,
Well I did it... I got on the plane in Houston and I didn't chicken out when I landed in Chicago and decide to stay with Erin. I made it all the way to London and am sitting at my new home for the next couple weeks and let me tell you it is fabulous!!!! I have a wonderful view of the city from my window at Jay's flat in South Kensington!!!

London is beautiful and I can't wait to get out and explore! But first it is time for a little nap because I have been up since 7am Thursday (Texas time) and it is approx. 7am Texas time now and I have slept all of about 3 hours and have been on 3 different flights!!!

Lots of love from London,
Megs
